“A clear progression” for Titouan Lecoester

Assessment? Only one judoka classified: Titouan Lecoester, from JC Coué, who will finish seventh in less than 66 kg. Six fights, four victories and two defeats for this fifteen-year-old judoka, first dan black belt and member of the Poitiers hopefuls pole. After three convincing victories, he lost in the quarter-finals against a judoka from a club from Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, before beating the number 2 seed in the category in the repechage and then losing again against a fighter from the Belfort club.

For his teacher, Ludovic Douteau, the day still remained positive. “I have seen real progress on the areas of work that we have implemented since the start of the school year, namely his posture and his movements. This competition shows that he is making clear progress. We are starting to see a real identity in his judo. For the record, he beat the winner of the Label A tournament in Bressuire and a judoka who finished fifth at the Clermont-Ferrand tournament, the benchmark competition at the start of the season. He just lacked a little success and rigor. »
